The young child of Inferni was almost five moons old now but she really couldn't tell. She'd watched Val growing almost everyday and still she seemed to remain small and frail. Zana had taken to hiding away from many of the older clanmembers, growing even more selfconcious about her size and looks. So many things seemed to have changed recently and yet the world seemed to remain the same, quiet and safe within the borders of Inferni.
She couldn't understand why DaVinci had been in so much trouble when he'd found her upset along the shore. She hadn't expected her brother to find her, but she had ventured all the way to Phoenix Valley without seeing him, she didn't see what could have been wrong with him coming to see her. Corona had been very angry with her brother and Zana felt she was to blame though everyone had told her she hadn't done anything wrong. The small girl had decided not to tell Ryan about what had happened though, she seemed to grow distant when Zana spoke of her brother and she didn't like it when Ryan seemed so far away but was right before her.
Today though she'd heard Gabriel's calling and she knew that she had to join the rest of the clan. She might not be very old but she did understand at least when the ruler called she had to listen. The pint sized hybrid hadn't left with Ryan and Val like she normally would have, instead she'd crept out across the sands to the meeting alone, not wanting to cause a scene as she settled down near a small nest of stones and brush that grew along the edge of the clearing. The little girl tried to crouch as low to the ground as she could, thinking that if she made herself any smaller she might just disappear and all the others wouldn't notice her frail appearance.
